Good News Clubs: Teaching children respect, good citizenship, moral values and character development. What's wrong Liberals?

Sometimes, the Davids win victories against the Goliaths and the Good News Clubs won a great victory over the radicals in the education establishment and their comrades in the ranks of the ACLU-types; the Anti-God types, etc. Recently, a federal court ruled against a school district in Williamsburg, Virginia, and in favor of the Child Evangelism Fellowship of Virginia (CEF) and the CEF's Good News Clubs.

The Liberty Counsel reported that the Williamsburg school district "will rewrite its policy and pay more than $20,000 in damages. We told school officials before we filed the lawsuit that their policy was unconstitutional. They refused, so we filed suit and they learned the hard way that the First Amendment forbids religious discrimination. We are grateful to the Lord for another victory. This victory opens the door for additional Good News Clubs in the local public schools."

The Liberty Counsel says that the after-school Good News Clubs teach children respect, good citizenship, moral values and character development from a biblical perspective. They said that every school in America needs a Good News Club and that Churches are helping sponsor and provide teachers for these clubs in many cities, but more teachers and volunteers are needed.

Both presidential candidates are saying they want every American to volunteer in some way. What better way is there to volunteer to teach children respect, good citizenship, moral values and character development from a biblical perspective?
